Let Us Celebrate.
Rochester Post-Erpress.


We are inclined to think that
much of the fippancy Of language
and thought common among Amerl'
cans in regard to the Declaration OF
independence is due to the style IN
which its adoption has been commem-
Grated from year to year. 1t is the
sense of this degeneracy that comes
upon the community every few years
and prompts people to demand a
serious public celebration ofthe great
day as a sort of renewal of loyalty to
our institutions and a reconsecration
of the old Fourth of July methods.
Theimpulseis is good one; and ifthere
be no other way of reawakening love
of country in a cynical and selfish
generation, We shall be glad to endure
even an old.fasLioned celebration OF
the Fourth Of July in so good cause.

best efforts in securing this class OF
goods from the best manufacturers in
order to compete with custom work, and
to sell you these goods at one-half their

made have been patronizing the Empo-

get as fine a suit, and will tit as we'll,
and better trimmed, and equally as we'll

The most important feature is that they

A FATAL MISTAKE.

TIE Czevc7on7 (Ohio) Press,
of February 2233,l, 1888, pub
lished an account of a fatal
surgical operation which caused
q great commot:oa among med
ical men tIlrou-!.out the whole
country, DR.. i 1iI:syer, the most
eminent surgeon III Cleveland,
pronounciny it scan'ialous. It
appears that Il lIr>. King had
been suffering ior many years
from some t...>r;,se Of the stom-
ach, which l1"'l resisted the
treatment Of III the physicians
in attendance. The disease
commenced with a slight de-
rangement CT the digestion,
with a poor a1'"'tite, followed
by a pec'li;s: l:::!'scrbable dis
tress in the stomach, a feeling
that has been described as a
faint "ai;l gone'' sensation,
sticky slime collecting about
the teeth, c%"S;ng a disagree
able taste. tbs sensation was
not removed by fool, but, on
the contrary, it was increased.
After a While the hands and
feet became cold AID sticky
a cold perspIatlon. There
was a constant tired and Ian
guild feeling. Then followed a
dreadful Nervousness, with
gloomy iorebodllgs. FINALLY
the patient was unable to re-
tain any food whatever, and
there was constant pain in the
abdomen. All prescribed rem
edies failing to give relief, Q
consultation was held, when il
was decided that the patient
had q cancer in the stomach,
and in order tosave thepatient,s
life an operation was justlf-
able. Accordingly, on the 22d
of February, 1883, the opera
ton was performed by DR..
Vance in the presence of DR..
Tuckerman, Dir. Pe!1ier, Dr..
Arms, Dr.. Gordon, Dr.. Capner,
and DR.. Ialiiwell of the Police
Board The operation consist
ed in laying open the cavity
of the abdomen and exposing
the stomach and bowels. When
this had been done an examin-
alton Of the organs Was made,
but to the horror and dismay
of tie doctors there was no
cancer to be found. The pa
tient did not have a cancer.
When too late the medical men
discovered that they had made
a terrible mistake; but they
sewed the parts together and
dressed the wound that they
had made, but the poor woman
sank from exhaustion and died
in a few hours. How sad it
must be for the husband Of this
poor woman to know that his
wife died from the effects Of a
surgical operation that ought
never to have been performed.
If this woman had taken the
proper remedy for Dyspepsia
and Nervous PlostEation flor
this was what the disease really
was), she would have been liv-
ing to-day. SHAKER EXTRACT OF
RooTs, or SEIGEL's CURATIVE
SYRUP, a remedy made ex-
pressly for Dyspepsia or Indi-
gestion, has restored many such
cases to perfect health after all
other kin:|s of treatment have

efficacy in curing this class Of
cases is I 70 voI1ln::nous to be
